Roger Federer and his wife, Mirka, scream couple goals every time they step out together. Whether it was supporting his illustrious tennis career or going through the ups and downs of being a 20-time Grand Slam champion, Mirka was always by his side. Her steadfast support is evident in even the smallest situations; She recently assisted a struggling Federer with an autograph signing, when they both attended a Coldplay concert.
The 42-year-old had a great night at Rome’s Olympic Stadium just a few days ago. Federer was spotted enjoying the lively atmosphere with his wife, Mirka, and their four children: sons, Leo and Lenny, and daughters, Myla and Charlene.
Amid the excitement of the same occasion, Roger Federer happily signed a fan’s Wimbledon T-shirt when he saw it. Although a video of Federer signing T-shirts went viral, Mirka was the real star of the show. Once again proving her supportive status and their chemistry, she was spotted helping her husband and ensuring the signatures were delivered correctly.
The former world number one tennis player and his wife Mirka were seen dancing together, lost in the moment, while Coldplay played “Fix You”. Then, they also grooved to the tune of Chris Martin’s new song, “Feels Like I’m Falling in Love.”
To his surprise, Martin saw the identical white clothes of Federer and Mirka even among the crowd, and during the concert he paid a special tribute to the tennis superstar. Martin said while singing, “Roger, my great brother, who is the greatest tennis player of all time. You are very good at sports, but who would have thought that you would appear with such a beautiful and amazing appearance?
So while enjoying his retirement, the 42-year-old former footballer is often spotted traveling to places like Vietnam or Thailand or going to live concerts with his wife. But Federer also spoke about how his wife helped him through some of the most difficult times in his career, as she was the one who brought discipline to his life.
Mirka brought ‘discipline’ into Federer’s life
Earlier this year, Roger Federer emphasized the importance of his wife, Mirka, in his tennis career. In an interview with El País, the 20-time Grand Slam champion praised her for instilling discipline in him, something he felt was lacking.
He said, “She helped me a lot during difficult times, and she played a very important role in keeping me motivated. She also taught me about discipline, because she was extremely disciplined; I was a player, an artist, if you will, and I needed guidance in that aspect.”
Former Swiss tennis player Mirka first hooked up with Roger at the 2000 Sydney Olympics. Nine years later, their love blossomed and they got married in secret. Her past as a professional athlete has given her great perspective and motivation, allowing Federer to handle the demands of her profession and achieve her incredible feats
